Per Chinese CDC: “Respiratory droplets & contact transmission are considered to be the most important routes of transmission”. Wash hands (or use sanitizer) often for at least 20 seconds. Wash hands before touching eyes, nose or mouth. Use a cloth cover over mouth & nose when around others. Stay home as much as possible. Avoid sick people. Distance at least 6 feet from others. Clean/ disinfect surfaces.
